mi casa es su casa
as like family, you know you are
we share
we dare
we fight
we cry
we laugh
we scamp
we stride into the world
as lamps
and, whether it’s together
or by miles apart
always
the love of friendship is
a gift of courage
to the mind and in the heart
I Love You (2 MACROS)
If I did not have friends like you
I honestly don’t know what I would do.
This is my simple way of saying to you
I really LOVE YOU.

Day 202 In the Pursuit of Love (Friendship)
Friendship is a noun. I would like to petition to change this. I am henceforth going to consider friendship a verb and not just any verb — an ACTION verb. Friendship is not a static thing. It changes and change requires action. Friendship requires interacting with another and this requires energy and energy makes it possible for you to DO things. Friendships evolve and evolution is change over time from simple to complex.
Through my action of photography — I would like to share what friendship looks like to me.
Friendship is acknowledging that our friends display on any given occasion — two sides of themselves.
Friendship is having the other’s back when their crazy side comes out and standing your ground when the nasties flare up.
Friendship is sharing time and space when you have nothing to say and when you have everything to say.
Friendship is embracing and allowing you and your friend your differences.
Friendships can be competitive or cooperative.
BUT
To me — Friendship is as essential as air, water, or food.
And friendship reflects our own light back to us.
What does friendship mean to you? Is friendship active or passive in your life? My friends show me the truest parts of myself. I hope you are graced with the same truth today.
Love, Colleen
Laughter
Dear friend,
I miss you
you with your over-loud laughter
laughter that is contagious
contagious epidemic of happiness
happiness spreads all around
around you no one can remain sad
sad tears dry on salty cheeks
cheeks blossom when kissed by joy
joy from you effervescent presence.
